Black River Baptist Association

We had 12 students to participate this year.  We want to thank Third Street Baptist Church and Pastor Johnny Bogle for hosting us.  Also, we want to thank our directors, Janet Scherer, First Baptist Church of Kennett and Tracy Broglin, Varner River of Kennett, for all of their hard work with the students from their churches.  In addition, we want to thank Christy Daugherty, Patti Duncan, Becky Ivie, Joanne Waddell, Curtis Ann Poole, Amanda Blaylock, and James Finch for helping us with our associational Bible Drill this year.
